Locus does not work because of license check, when not absolutely up to date. Then it breaks on startup with 1811 instead of a useful error message. I was outdoor and could not use it and had no idea, what was wrong. This makes Locus an unreliable compagnon when being outdoor. Had this error a couple of times in the past months.

It's hard to describe how great of a GPS app this is. But compared to all the other options, Locus Map has made navigating my hikes an even more enjoyable experience. And even more, it's just so powerful, you can do so many things with it.

My favorite niche-app in all of Google play. For a maps power user like me this is pure heaven. It's mind boggling the amount of things this app can do with maps and location, and it's being updated and extended regularly. Buy it now!

Dear Thomas V. Worm. We are sorry for the troubles with Locus app. The error 1811 means, that there is a problem with Google services in your device. Google Play app can't to verify your purchased license. Please, contact us to our help Desk help.locusmap.eu. Thank you, Hana

I was able to retire my Garmin GPS unit and get rid of that atrocious BaseCamp software for viewing my hike stats. This app does it in real time and so much easier! Worth the cost for upgrading to the non-ad version.

Please update app as it is a lot worse on battery than normal. If battery drain is addressed it will be great. Can you guys add a snowmobile option as way of navigation? Like car, hiking, skiing, walking etc. Would be awesome to have that. I'm using locus pro with galaxy s7 edge usa at&t.

Version 3.28.1. Excellent app even on an antique Sony Xperia Active with Android 4.0.4. The help desk is very reactive and efficient. GPS handling is excellent. Custom offline maps can be easily created with MOBAC. Custom map downloads can be added to the many provided by the app. Track recording and editing are efficient. Efficient live tracking. Price is ridiculously low considering the very large number of tools. Many thanks to the developers.

Installed this today, looks excellent. Fast, nice looking UI. Some say it's complicated, doesn't feel that way to me, within an hour. I had downloaded maps & sussed out how to import GPX tracks. It allowed me to install on both tablet and phone, excellent for preplanning walks etc. I like to buy my software, this is worth every penny I paid, the developers should be congratulated. Update. Used the app in the lake district this week on a snowy foggy walk, preloaded a GPX track and used in rotating map mode with direction of travel arrowed line. Very easy to see when your drifting off route. This is an excellent app which won't kill your battery.

+Great features, I also like the variety of maps. -Menu system extremely complex, counter intuitive, very difficult to use. Also the texts on the maps are very small on a smartphone (full hd, 5" screen) I have a feeling that you couldn't make it more complicated even if you tried! (im no technofobe)

App it self is excellent, with a full range of features (the rating is for the app) and has been fairly easy to use. Not Locus' fault, but the NZ Topo maps are now hopelessly out of date. Seems the map provider has stopped bothering to update their maps. Haven't been able to find out how to feed in a new set of maps.

I really like this app, I use it all the time. It is very good for hiking and trail recording. "This is a request for the developer - can you improve offline address search - it would be nice if it had same capability as HERE maps has, for offline address search." Other then this, I would recommend it to anybody, it is really an excellent product.

I have used with downloaded Locus vector maps on Iceland, Madeira and Canaries. Better than any other maps of those areas. App itself has more features than I ever need. I downloaded gpx files from Sunflower and Rotherham guidebooks , works very easily and well. So , 5++ from me !

Dear Dima Ins. Thank you for your comment. An internet connection is necessary for first Locus run after update only. In case of troubles with initialization, please contact us to our help desk help.locusmap.eu We will do our best to help you. Thank you, Hana

I tried out Gaia, Tremble and a couple other offline tracking apps. This one provided the best and most accurate data. Love it!

The imposed 10000 tiles a day makes it impossible to download USGS US topo maps. Map is 15 zoom levels deep, with level 9 having 22694 tiles, level 10 89540 tiles and each next approximately x4 more. So you are looking 9days for zoom 10, 36 for level 11, 144 for level 12, 576 level 13, etc. Point is it will take over decade to download map. EDIT: Why do I need it? To navigate TAT (Trans America Trail) and CDR. Using online isn't an option as there too many places without coverage. If you have problems with providers change them or zip it and stick it on the share I will pick it from there. As is app completely useless, maybe for little trips to community park but not for real trip good luck.

Dear user. The map limits for downloaded are determined by providers. Why do need so huge area at once? Also thank you for contacting us to our Help Desk, our map specialist will contact you after Christmas holiday.

Great navigation app. It can read and use an incredible number of free maps AND from different vendors. You can customise just about everything, so, it will look and do all you want. Also, most probably through my own fault, I lost tracks and waypoints. The customer service I received was quick and accurate.

Long-time user. From my experience, this app is well worth paying for. Has been steadily adding functionality for years based on user requests and developer desires. I primarily use this for running and biking, but have also used it for hiking and driving. Pros: - Worldwide maps for roads and trails - Multiple available maps for Europe and North America - Map overlays - Waypoints & waypoint alarms - Offline maps - Geo tagging - Stats tracking - Path filtering for improved navigation - Not a battery hog - Responsive developers - Free trial version Cons: - Map download limits - but there's plenty of availability for reasonable use. (Not sure about the review looking for tons of USGS tiles - are you planning on hitting the entire US using only offline maps?) And you can pay for more if you need it. - Some updates have caused temporary stability issues under certain heavy use conditions. These issues are typically resolved within a day of release, and in more than 4 years of essentially daily use spanning 4-5 phones the app has only crashed on me 2 or 3 times. - Location search is limited.

Dear simon hunt. Thank you for your comment. What would you like to do with outdoor app? Please, contact us to our Help desk help.locusmap.eu Your feedback is important for us. Thank you in advance, Hana.

Wether it's hiking, enduro, geocaching, turn by turn navigation, KMZ overlays, or just looking for a stream - Locus does it all, OFFLINE, and better than any garmin! Great job guys, keep the updates coming! thanks!
